Licensee Action on Previous Inspection Items
(0 pen)
Unresolved Item (302/82-28-04):
The
licensee has revised
Surveillance Procedure (SP)-187, which tests the Auxiliary Building
ventilation system. This procedure has been completely rewritten per the SP
writer's guide to enhance the procedure's clarity. The inspector recently
reviewed the latest revision (Revision 12) to this procedure and noticed
.
.
2
that the procedure's acceptance criteria was confusing when checked against
the Technical Specification (TS) surveillance requirements.
Also, step
9.2.9.9 of this procedure references a step 9.2.12 which does not exist.
These items were discussed with licensee engineering personnel who agreed to
make applicable changes. The licensee also plans to perform another review
of procedures SP-185 and SP-186 to check for the existence of similar
problems.
'
(Closed) IFI (302/85-42-04):
The licensee has revised Administrative
Instruction (AI)-1000, Good Housekeeping, and AI-1803, Safety Standards for
Ladders, Scaffolds, and Ancillary Equipment, to include precautions and
requirements to insure that safety related equipment is protected from
ancillary items such as ladders and scaffolding. These revisions satisfy
the concerns identified in IE Information Notice 80-21.
(Closed) Violation (302/86-07-01):
In an Interoffice Correspondence dated
August 1,1986, the maintenance superintendent stated that the review of
activities associated with the incorrectly classified Work Request (WR) was
conducted on the WR in use on the job. A review of this WR indicates that
the chief electrician and the electrical supervisor signed the WR (#73433)
on October 9,
1985, which was after the incorrect classification was
identified, thus indicating that they had reviewed the work. Action on this
item is considered to be complete.
(Closed) Unresolved Item (302/86-23-09?:
The itcensee has completed their
investigation to determine why the missing wire for valve FWV-15 had been
removed.
This wire was removed during the performance of a plant
,
modification procedure (MAR 82-10-19-06) which relocated several electrical
components. This modification failed to provide instructions to reconnect
the wire upon completion.
The function of this wire was to provide
feedwater pump protection during maintenance activities by interlocking this
valve's position with the corresponding condensate booster pump's discharge
valve. This non-saftey related function is not required by the Technical
Specifications and is not required to be tested during routine surveillance
activities. The modification functional testing did not test this feature.
The missing wire has been replaced and the valve continues to operate
satisfactory.
(Closed) Violation (302/86-09-05):
The licensee has completed and the
inspector has verified the completion of the following items:
Operating Procedure (0P)-404 has been revised (revision 58, dated
-
July 29, 1986) to require either valve RWV-32 or RWV-33 to be open at
all times, and,
An Immediate Temporary Change (ITC) was made to OP-407-A which required
-
valve RWV-33 to be returned to its required position upon radioactive
!
liquid release termination.
Action on this item is considered to be complete.

Review of Plant Operations
,
The plant remained in power operation (Mode 1) for the duration of this
inspection period.
,-
a.
Shift Logs and Facility Records
The inspector reviewed records and discussed various entries with
operations
personnel
to verify compliance with the Technical
Specifications (TS) and the licensee's administrative procedures.
The following records were reviewed:
,
Shift
Supervisor's
Log;
Reactor
Operator's
Log;
Equipment
Out-Of-Service Log;
Shift Relief Checklist; Auxiliary Building
Operator's Log; Active Clearance Log; Daily Operating Surveillance Log;
i
Work
Request
Log;
Short
Term
Instructions;
and
Selected
Chemistry / Radiation Protection Logs.
In addition to these record
reviews, the inspector independently verified clearance order tagouts.
!
On September 4, while observing plant operations, the inspector noted
!
that two of the annunciators, Q-7-10 and -Q-8-10,
had open links
(thereby making the annunciators inoperable) but were not listed in the
,
I
annunciator's Equipment-Out-Of-Service
log.
These
'
entitled " PERIMETER FENCE INTRUSION" and "CC (Control Complex) ACCESS
i
DOOR OPEN" respectively, were disabled years ago and were not needed
j
since the security system had appropriate alarms.
.
While these alarms were not needed, the inspector expressed concern as
to whether there were other annunciators that had been made inoperable
and were not properly logged as required by the licensee's procedures.
Licensee personnel acknowledged the inspector's concern and will
conduct a review of the annunciators to verify whether any additional
annunciators have been disabled and not properly logged.
l
l
.
8
Unresolved Item (302/86-27-01): Review the annunciator panel status to
verify that the annunciator Equipment-Out-Of-Service log is current.
b.
Facility Tours and Observations
Throughout the inspection period, facility tours were conducted to
observe operations and maintenance activities in progress.
Some
operations and maintenance activity observations were conducted during
backshifts.
Also, during this inspection period, licensee meetings
were attended by the inspector to observe planning and management
activities.
The facility tours anti observations encompassed the fol wwing areas:
security perimeter felce; control room; emergency diesel generator
room; auxiliary building; intermediate building; battery rooms; and,
electrical switchgear rooms.
During these tours, the following observations were made:
(1) Monitoring Instrumentation - The following instrumentation was
observed to verify that indicated parameters were in accordance
with the TS for the current operational mode:
Equipment operating status; area atmospheric and liquid radiation
monitors; electrical system lineup; reactor operating parameters;
and auxiliary equipment operating parameters.
On August 20, at approximately 3:30 P.M., the inspector noted that
power was available to four containment isolation valves (CAV-429,
CAV-430, CAV-433, and CAV-434).
Procedure SP-341, Monthly
Containment Integrity Check, requires these valves to normally
have power removed by having switch #27 on electrical panel
DPDP-5A locked open during plant operations because these valves
do not receive an automatic containment isolation signal in the
event of an accident. When operations personnel were notified of
this finding, they immediately opened switch #27 that supplies
power to these valves. The valves were de-energized by approxi-
mately 3:40 P.M.
The inspector's investigation into this event indicated that the
licensee had just completed testing another containment isolation
valve, CAV-431, and had just released equipment clearance 8-95 to
restore the system to the normal status. Circuit breaker #27 was
listed on this clearance to insure personnel safety and was
'
" restored" at approximately 2:18 P.M.
While the circuit breaker
.
was tagged in the "0FF" position and should have been restored
(i.e., only the tag removed) so that it was left in the "0FF"
position, it was incorrectly directed to be restored to the "0N"
position by clearance 8-95.
.
.
9
Equipment clearances are issued and controlled in accordance with
procedure
(CP)-115,
In-Plant
Equipment
Clearance
and
Switching Orders.
Step 5.3.5.h of this procedure specifies that
the return-to-normal position of the valve, switch, or breaker
after removal of a tag should be obtained from the applicable
operating procedure (0P) and not from system flow diagrams. The
licensee's Administrative Instruction AI-400, Plant Operating
Quality Assurance Manual Control Document (P0QAM), specifies in
paragraph 4.1.3 that the word "shall" denotes a requirement and
that the word "should" denotes a recommendation.
Since the word
"should" only provides a recommendation and not a requirement, the
use of a procedure was only an option.
In addition, since it
appears that if CP-115 had directed the use of an appropriate
procedure (in this case procedure SP-341) to determine the lineup,
an incorrect restoration lineup would not have occurred.
As a
result of this investigation, procedure CP-115 is considered to be
inadequate.
Failure to have an adequate procedure for equipment control is
contrary to the requirements of TS 6.8.1.a and is considered to be
a violation.
Violation (302/86-27-02):
Failure to have an adequate procedure
for plant equipment control.
(2) Safety Systems Walkdown - The inspector conducted a walkdown of
the Nuclear Services and Decay Heat Seawater (RW) system to verify
that the lineup was in accordance with license requirements for
system operability and that the system drawing and procedure
correctly reflect "as-built" plant conditions.
No violations or deviations were identified.
(3) Shift Staffing - The inspector verified that operating shift
staffing was in accordance with TS requirements and that control
room operations were being conducted in an orderly and
professional manner.
In addition, the inspector observed shift
turnovers on various occasions to verify the continuity of plant
,
i
status,
operational
problems,
and other pertinent
plant
!
information during these turnovers.
No violations or deviations were identified.
l
(4) Plant Housekeeping Conditions - Storage of material and components
and cleanliness conditions of various areas throughout the
facility were observed to determine whether safety and/or fire
hazards existed.
No violations or deviations were identified.

(5) Radiation Areas - Radiation Control Areas (RCAs) were observed to
verify
proper
identification
and
implementation.
These
observations included selected licensee-conducted surveys, review
of step-off pad conditions, disposal of contaminated clothing, and
area posting.
Area postings were independently verified for
accuracy.
The inspector also reviewed selected radiation work
permits and observed the use of protective clothing, respirators,
and personnel monitoring devices to assure that the licensee's
radiation monitoring policies were being followed.
No violations or deviations were identified.
(6) Security Control - Security controls were observed to verify that
security barriers were intact, guard forces were on duty, and
access to the Protected Area (PA) was controlled in accordance
with the facility security plan.
Personnel within the PA were
observed to verify proper display of badges and that personnel
requiring escort were properly escorted. Personnel within vital
areas were observed to ensure proper authorization for the area.
No violations or deviations were identified.
(7) Fire Protection - Fire protection activities, staffing and
equipment were observed to verify that fire brigade staffing was
appropriate and that fire alarms, extinguishing equipment,
actuating controls, fire fighting equipment, emergency equipment,
,
and fire barriers were operable.
No violations or deviations were identified.
(8) Surveillance - Surveillance tests were observed to verify that
,
approved procedures were being used; qualified personnel were
'
conducting the tests; tests were adequate to verify equipment
operability;
calibrated equipment,
was utilized;
and TS
requirements were followed.
The following tests were observed and/or data reviewed:
l
-
SP-146, Emergency Feedwater Initiation and Control (EFIC)
Monthly Functional Test;
SP-160B, Functional and Operability Check of the Containment
-
Hydrogen Monitor WS-10-CE;

-
SP-341, Monthly Containment Integrity Check;
-
SP-712, Core Flood Tank "B" Monthly Surveillance Program.
-
As a result of these reviews, the following items were identified:
(a) During a review of the plant logs, the inspector noted that
operations personnel had determined that the plant's computer
generated heat balance calculation was in error and that
action was being taken to correct the situation.
The
inspector also noted that this error existed for about three
days before it was identified.
Subsequent discussions with these personnel indicated that
this error was identified by personnel when they noted that
the heat balance results appeared to be inconsistent with the
value for generated megawatt output. These discussions, in
addition to the review of completed data for procedure SP-312
by the inspector, indicated that the errors were in the
conservative direction
(i.e.,
the nuclear instrumentation
i
(NI's) power was higher than the heat balance calculated
power).
The licensee performs a daily heat balance calculation in
accordance with procedure SP-312.
This procedure did not
identify the erroneous heat balance calculation because the
l
procedure only requires action to be taken if the heat
balance shows that the NI's are not conservative with respect
to the heat balance. Additionally the inspector noted that
the procedure only compares the computer generated values for
i
i
the NI's with the computer generated values for the heat
balance thus raising the possibility that a computer
malfunction may not be readily detected.
These findings were discussed with licensee personnel. As a
result the licensee will revise procedure SP-312 to provide a
limit for the conservative direction and to direct a check of
the computer generated NI indications with other plant
indications.
,
l
IFI (302/86-27-03):
Review the revision to procedure SP-312
l
to provide a limit for conservative NI drift and an
l
additional check of computer data with plant instrumentation.
l
(b) During the performance of SP-163B on September 3,1986, the
inspector noted that step 9.4.4 requires data to be recorded
'
when
two
switches (WD-21-FIS#1 and WD-21-FIS#2) are
activated. The technicians indicated that only one switch
l
existed but this switch operated two relays, therefore only

one data point was required to be recorded. The inspector
also observed that the nitrogen purge established in step
9.4.3 was not required to be secured. A temporary change to
the procedure was made to secure the nitrogen purge.
Finally, step 10.1 of this procedure required the technicians
to open valves WDV-575 or WDV-576 if not already opened per
section 9.4.
However section 9.4 does not address operation
of these valves. The discrepancies noted in these steps were
discussed with licensee management personnel. The licensee
will revise this procedure to clarify these steps.
IFI (302/86-27-04): Review the revision to procedure SP-1638
to clarify steps.
(9) Maintenance Activities - The inspector observed maintenance
activities to verify that correct equipment clearances were in
effect; work requests and fire prevention work permits, as
required, were issued and being followed; quality control
personnel were available for inspection activities as required;
and TS requirements were being followed.
Maintenance was observed and work packages were reviewed for the
following maintenance activities:
-
Troubleshooting of sluggish pressurizer heater controls in
accordance with Maintenance Procedure (MP)-531;
Repacking of a nuclear services seawater pump (RWP-2A) in
-
accordance with procedure MP-150;
-
Replacement and post maintenance testing for valve CAV-431 in
accordance with procedures MP-132, MP-531, SP-370, and
During the post maintenance testing on valve CAV-431 (a Target
Rock solenoid-operated valve) the licensee discovered that the
valve had been installed backwards. Investigation into the cause
for this situation revealed that this valve has no markings to
identify the flowpath and that the electrical cable penetration
orientation is not the same for each valve (workmen utilized the
cable penetration as a reference and installed the replacement
valve in the same orientation as the valve removed). The valve
was again replaced and orientation of the new valve checked by
referencing the valve's internals.
Post maintenance testing was
subsequently completed satisfactory. The licensee plans on making
changes to procedures and purchasing requirements to delineate
flowpath markings on these types of valves.
IFI(302/86-27-05):
Review the licensee's activities to establish
correct orientation for Target Rock valves.

(10) Radioactive Waste Controls - Solid waste compacting and selected
liquid and gaseous releases were observed to verify that approved
procedures were utilized, that appropriate release approvals were
obtained, and that required surveys were taken.
No violations or deviations were identified.
(11) Pipe Hangers and Seismic Restraints - Several pipe hangers and
seismic restraints (snubbers) on safety-related systems were
observed to insure that fluid levels were adequate and no leakage
was evident, that restraint settings were appropriate, and that
anchoring points were not binding.
No violations or deviations were identified.

Review of Licensee Event Reports and Nonconforming Operations Reports
a.
Licensee Event Reports (LERs) were reviewed for potential generic
impact, to detect trends, and to determine whether corrective actions
appeared appropriate. Events, which were reported immediately, were
reviewed as they occurred to determine if the TS were satisfied.
LERs 86-10, 86-11, and 86-12 were reviewed in accordance with current
NRC policy. LER's 86-10 and 86-11 are closed.
(1) (Closed)
LER 86-10
reported
the violation
of Technical Specification (TS) 6.2.2.a which requires two Senior Reactor
Operator licensees on watch during plant operation in the hot
standby mode (Mode 3). Licensee corrective action on this matter
has been completed
including
the
remedial
training
and
requalification of the backup licensee involved.
(2) (0 pen) LER 86-12 reported that the heat balance calculation
surveillance procedure (SP-312) had not been performed within the
required TS surveillance interval. This matter is considered to
be a licensee identified violation in which adequate corrective
actions have been taken to prevent recurrence.
This LER will
remain open pending the inspectors verification that all shift
supervisors have reviewed this LER.
b.
The inspector reviewed Nonconforming Operations Reports (NCORs) to
l
verify the following:
compliance with the TS, corrective actions as
identified in the reports or during subsequent reviews have been
accomplished or are being pursued for completion, generic items are
identified and reported as reautred by 10 CFR Part 21, and items are
reported as required by TS.
All NCORs were reviewed in accordance with the current NRC Policy.

(1) NCOR 86-103 reported that procedure SP-417, Refueling Interval
Integrated Plant Response to Engineered Safeguards Actuation, was
inadequate to implement the surveillance requirements of TS 4.8.1.1.2.c.3.a
in that the load shedding of the 480 volt
emergency busses was not being tested. The licensee is revising
procedure SP-417 to incorporate a new method to verify this 1 cad
shedding capability and will submit an LER on this matter. This
l
matter is considered a licensee identified violation in which
adequate corrective actions will be taken to prevent recurrence.
This item will be reviewed further when the LER is issued.
(2) NCOR 86-139 reported the failure to comply with TS 3.3.3.1 in that
the automatic functions of the control room radiation monitor
instrument (RMA-5) were disabled and the control complex emergency
ventilation system was not placed in the
recirculation mode
within one hour. The licensee plans to submit an LER to document
this event. This matter is considered to be a licensee identified
violation in which adequate corrective actions were taken to
prevent recurrence. This item will be reviewed further when the
LER is issued.
(3) NCOR 86-142 reported that DJ-11-TS, a temperature switch for the
Jacket Water Cooling system on the "A" Emergency Diesel Generator,
was improperly calibrated. The licensee discovered this condition
,
during routine followup of a field problem report which identified
a problem with the operation of the switch.
The miscalibrated
,
' -
switch did not affect the operability of the diesel. The licensee
attributed the cause for the improper calibration to be the use of
an instrument calibration data sheet which was not revised
i
following a plant modification (MAR 80-11-28-02) which established
new higher operating setpoints for the switch. The calibration of
the switch to lower setpoints still maintained the temperature of
the system within -manufacturer's recommendations.
As part of
their corrective action, the licensee has reassigned control of
the instrument calibration data sheets to site engineering who
will review and revise these sheets for future changes. Also new
plant modifications will include new instrument calibration data
sheets as part of the modification package. The licensee plans to
recalibrate the temperature switch prior to the next monthly
diesel generator surveillance test. The inspector has reviewed the
work package used to perform this job and has verified that the
correct instrument calibration sheet was included in this package.
This matter is considered to be a licensee identified violation in
which adequate corrective action has been taken to prevent
recurrence.
